This collection of essays pick apart the lived experiences of its author. Hunter uses his experiences as child sex worker, teenage crack addict, violent thug and community activist to examine the ways in which our classed experiences shape the ways in which we think and do our politics. Chav Solidarity is part autobiography, part meditation on trauma, class and identity, and part one-finger salute into the face of respectability politics. The author likes to give free copies to prisoners and others without the means to buy them so the cover price reflects this “benefit”.
